Soldier Signature Management Advanced Technology
Abstract
This Project optimizes, matures and demonstrates advances in novel materials, technologies, techniques, and applications increasing the capabilities of camouflage, concealment, and deception against known and emerging sensor threats. These technologies will produce proof of concept systems that decrease the probability of detection and targeting by peer and near-peer adversaries, enabling freedom of movement of semi-independent and dispersed formations, and increase protection of high-valued assets. This Project will demonstrate disruptive Camouflage, Concealment and Deception technologies, supporting expeditionary maneuver in the Multi-Domain Battle Environment to open and retain windows of advantage. Research in this Project supports key Army needs and leverages/complements the technical research of several Program Elements (PEs) and Projects to include PE 0602143A (Soldier Lethality Technology) / BB4 (Dismounted Soldier Survivability Materials), Project AZ5 (Soldier Protection Technology - Vulnerability), Project AZ9 (Soldier Protection Advanced Tech - Detectability); PE 0601102A (Defense Research Sciences; and PE 0602145A (Next Generation Combat Vehicle Technology) / Project BI2 (Sensor Protection Technology). The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Research in this Project is performed by the United States Army Futures Command (AFC).
